Planted Tank Notes: Bogwood and Moss
http://plantedtanknotes.blogspot.com/2008/09/bogwood-and-moss.html
Notes and journals of my planted aquariums. Sunday, September 21, 2008. I just got myself some bog wood and Java Moss. Update: well, it looks like I cooked moss in the direct sun. So far no luck. Yet another update: first female and then male white cloud minnows died because of the deterioration of water caused by new moss. I made a 50% water change - barbs seem to be OK.

Planted Tank Notes: 58 Gal: Messy Moss, More Plants and Fish
http://plantedtanknotes.blogspot.com/2008/10/58-gal-messy-moss-and-more-plants.html
Notes and journals of my planted aquariums. Sunday, October 5, 2008. 58 Gal: Messy Moss, More Plants and Fish. Courtesy of Jeff B. I now have more plants. Rotala macrandra. Is absolutely gorgeous - it has extremely fine delicate leaves and is doing almost OK in my tank. R.macrandra v. narrow leaf. Looks more like R.rotundufolia. Seem to be slowly melting. Hope it will turn around. I also got a stem of Schefflera aromatica(? This plant seem to be doing OK. I also received Anubias barteri 'eyes'.

http://plantedtanknotes.blogspot.com/2008/10/58gal-growth.html
Notes and journals of my planted aquariums. Friday, October 10, 2008. 58 Gal: Time off and Growth. I had 3 days of vacation and read Ecology of the Planted Aquarium. And Nature Aquarium World I.

The first picture was taken on 10/5 after I just planted new arrivals. The second shot was taken just 5 days later on 10/10!

I painted the back wall black - on the outside, off course. Modified IKEA Akurum 36" base cabinet. TEK Light 36" 4 lamp T5HO fixture for a total of 156W. I use 6000K lamps. Hydor ETH 201 200W. Inside/Outside diameter 12/16 mm. Installed in the tank. I'd rather had it plumbed into the return path though just to have less stuff in the tank.

Planted Tank Notes: Water Chemistry
http://plantedtanknotes.blogspot.com/2008/10/water-chemistry.html
Notes and journals of my planted aquariums. Sunday, October 12, 2008. Today I finally used the test kits - all I had - low range pH and KH/GH. The results are really confusing:. There is no surprise that 58Gal has lower pH - CO2 injection shows. 58Gal does have a terribly high GH - I tested it twice only to get the same result - I guess water change is overdue. But 47ppm for CO2? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). 58 Gal: Rummy-Nose Tetras. 58 Gal: Time off and Growth. View my complete profile.
